Mastercraft backs MyoWorks to build smart tools for 135,000 US chiropractors

Try Dealroom →, a Wisconsin-based healthcare technology startup, has secured an investment from Mastercraft VenturesDealroom has a profile for this one.

What's the product? MyoWorks makes handheld instruments that combine multiple treatment methods with software to capture clinical data and automate documentation. The company wants to use that data to track patient progress and inform clinical decisions.
Why now? Founder Jeremy Quick developed the concept after more than a decade as a practicing chiropractor. By combining treatments usually performed separately, he says he delivered more care per appointment and lifted practice revenue by 20%.
What's the endgame? MyoWorks is first targeting the instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization market, which Mastercraft estimates covers about 135,000 US practitioners. The pitch is that connected tools can improve both patient care and practice economics.
"Chiropractic has always been part art and part science, but existing tools capture very little of that knowledge," Quick said. He added that the backing lets MyoWorks scale its software and "physical AI systems."
What could go wrong? The core bet is unproven: whether ordinary tools can generate reliable, useful data without adding friction to clinicians' workflows. The undisclosed amount also makes the financing hard to size as a milestone.
The signal: The deal fits a broader rehabilitation-tech push to connect treatment hardware with clinician software and patient-progress data — a trend echoed by Edinburgh's Bioliberty, which raised a $3.3 million Series A extension in November for connected robotic rehabilitation. MyoWorks' twist is targeting routine hands-on treatment rather than robotics, betting that documenting everyday care is where the next layer of clinical data will come from. "We believe the next generation of healthcare technology will be driven by practitioner-led insights that connect software and AI directly to the physical tools they use every day," said Mastercraft managing director Mason Cook.
